Bright Eyes

[A]Bright lights, big city
[D]Was quite extraordinary.
[A]The drive was pretty.
[D]I was in perfect company.
[A]The love of a lifetime,
[D]Since we were elementary friends;
[A]The one with the bright eyes..
[D]

[A]Why [D]cant I be optimistic?
[A]I tr[D]ied to find the logic logically.
[A]I ha[D]d a dream and I could not shake it.
[A]I w[D]as standing up there naked.
[A]

[A]There's fear in the truth at hand, f[D]rozen I forgot to understand
[A]The live keep living; g[D]rowing older more into a man..
[A]And [D]I let her grow away from me.

[A]Love.. l[D]ove is not pretending.
[A]Time.. t[D]ime was meant for mending
[A]Memories into[D] all is satisfactory,
Healthy s[A]miles fill the page the d[D]ay we spent in mil[A]es.
[A]And I l[D]et her drive away from m[A]e.

[A]The one with the bright eyes
[D]Laughed her way inside this music bo[A]x;
[D]Stored away in the corner of my hea[A]rt.
[A]And I let[D] her get away from [A]me
[D]But I'll never take that day a[A]way from me!
